Holidays to Western Australia: An Overview

Famous for its long days of sunshine, spotless blue skies and
brilliant beaches, Western Australia is a great place to experience
some rather special natural attractions. Holidays to Western
Australia have something for everyone; The state's capital Perth is
an easy-going place with a chilled out café culture, and for wine
lovers the Southwest famously boasts world class wineries. In the
far northwest, the Kimberley is an ancient landform of rugged
ranges with deep, spectacular gorges and pristine sandy beaches
that fringe the turquoise waters of the Indian Ocean, and for great
marine life the Ningaloo reef will not disappoint.

Western Australia Luxury Holidays: The Detail

Perth, the state's capital is an easy-going place of simple
pleasures - sailing on the Swan River, strolling in Kings Park and
enjoying a sunny afternoon sipping a cold beer.

Original Travel can arrange a variety of exciting activities to
enjoy on your luxury holiday including diving or snorkelling at
Ningaloo Reef with the world's largest fish - the whale shark- or
manta rays. In the south west, we can organise guides to explore
forests of ancient and giant trees and in the north you can sleep
under a canopy of stars or explore the strange beehive-like
formations of the Bungle Bungles with the help of an Aboriginal
guide.

The south west is known for its world class wineries, luxury
accommodation and forests of tall trees. These taper off to a
ribbon of coastal hinterlands of sheltered bays and rivers, often
lined with massive granite boulders and stunning outlooks.

The Kimberley is home to the remarkable Bradshaw and Wandjina
paintings, usually found together and near permanent water holes.
The Bradshaw paintings, dated at more than seventeen thousand years
old, are amongst the most ancient rock paintings on earth.
